IF HALF ARE WILLING TO SAY IT, IT’S MORE THAN HALF: Almost half of Americans would back shutting down government to stop noncitizens voting, poll reveals.

When Republicans vote on Wednesday to tie a stopgap spending bill to new requirements for voters to provide proof of citizenship they will have the backing of Americans, according to a new poll for DailyMail.com.

It found that 48 percent of likely voters believe that noncitizens are voting in American elections, and that 45 percent feel strongly enough that they would support a government shutdown over the issue.

In contrast, 27 percent said they would oppose a shutdown on those grounds.

The results come in a poll of 1000 voters, conduced by J.L. Partners, which delved into one of the major dividing lines in the 2024 election.

Republicans insist that legislation is required to protect the legitimacy of the vote after years of unprecedented illegal immigration at the southern border.
